Maybe it's been covered but a quick search didn't answer my question.
Looking at builds and recommended setup it seems the ssr and heat sink is fairly standard. Why?
I have several years experience designing and building control panels for high voltage pressure washers however my true knowledge on this topic is limited to application and practice, not theory.
In my mind, possibly because it's all I've used, why not use contact breakers for the power switching? Why the ssr? Is there a particular benefit or drawback to either? I have accumulated the parts to build the majority of my planned panel but I have contact breakers I intended to use. Any reason I should not?
Or am I overlooking something and the ssr is used in conjunction?
